[OPLINTECH] How many of these do you subscribe to?]

[Laura Solomon]

Did you know that OPLIN has *three* different blogs, each with a 
different purpose? (And we're not even including the main OPLIN website 
in the count!). Here's a rundown:

*The OPLIN 4cast* (http://www.oplin.org/4cast/) is updated once per week, 
and each week it gives a brief overview of 4 new technological 
developments with links to additional resources if you want more 
information.  Great way to get just a few "bytes" of technology news 
without being overwhelmed, or to catch developments you might otherwise 
have missed.

*Ohio Library News *(http://www.oplin.org/ohiolibrarynews/) is where 
OPLIN collates all the news we can find about Ohio's public libraries.  
If an Ohio public library has been in the mainstream media, chances are 
good you'll find out about it here.  Don't forget to send your own 
contributions to editor at oplin.org <mailto:editor at oplin.org> so we can 
include them!
*
What Does This Mean to Me, Laura?* (http://www.oplin.org/meanlaura/) is 
the new blog on the block.  I spend a little time every so often 
explaining about various Web 2.0 services or technologies in ways that 
(I hope) make some sense to the non-technically inclined or show why 
these things matter to public libraries.  (It seems to have garnered the 
nickname "Mean Laura," but I'm not *always* cranky.  Honest.)

All three blogs are optimized for mobile devices and have RSS feeds.  
Please share this message with your library's staff--you never know who 
might be interested in learning more about what is happening on the Net 
or in Ohio's libraries!
